[QUOTE="Malcolm, post: 1376990, member: 11180"] Hey Oozey :p Ok, some questions for ya: 1.) Is Talamar about Time/Knowledge and "Not" reliving past mistakes (ie Forethought/wisdom); or about Time/Knowledge and not "reliving" past mistakes (ie guilt, penance, atonement)? I don't understand the last sentence, please clarify. I think I know what ya mean, but... 2.) Is Talamar a Boccobian sort of diety who directs his followers and expects them to simply "go with the flow" or a Wee Jas diety who says "Emergency in the time-continum! Use Teleport now!" 3.) Does Talamar really need followers at all? How is one "called" to service? Is it a thirst for knowledge or a need for being part of something larger? Ok suggestions :) : You mentioned that Talamar does small things quietly in the background that have larger effects. How about a class ability: "I was Never Here" - works like the the Bardic spell to redo memory but in this case those who witness the Servant do something related to Talamar's wishes will start forgetting the Servant did anything at all. Base it on time spent doing the quest; so if a Servant needs some folks to help him with something major and it takes 8days to do, after 8 days they will have forgotten the Servant was involved and think they did it alone. Or perhaps they will remember that he was a local sage who said something that was "really helpful information"? Here's an idea I like: "Pierce the Veil" - once per day the Servant is able to penetrate the Mind Blank (or any high level blocking spells) of any one individual such that they can use Divination spells (but not Compulsion/Mind-Effecting) on them. This might have been done in one of Monte's BoEM or in another of the books out there, nutz I don't have them on me right now. I doubt I'm making this one up though I can't recall a source just now, but if I am oh well. There are a couple of spells in RR & RR2 which mimic the "See What's Coming" ability and might give some direction. Also both books have some "luck" spells that might reflect the "One of Three Roads" without making the ability too powerful (as it stand now its really pretty :eek: [/QUOTE]
